    Commencement (毕业典礼) is a time for idealism.
    But economic reality is cruel everywhere; especially for new graduate. They have been told repeatedly that a college degree is an open sesame(芝麻) to the global economy. But that’s not necessarily so, according to new research by two economists at he Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Frank Levy and Peter Temin.
    It is true that people with college degrees make more money than people without degrees. The gap has narrowed somewhat in recent years, which is disturbing. But the earning power of college graduates still far outpaces that of less-educated workers.
    The bad news, though, is that a college degree does not ensure a bigger share of the economics pie for many graduates. In recent decades Mr. Levy and Mr. Temin show, only college-educated women have seen their income grow in line with economy wide gains in productivity. The earnings of male college graduates have failed to keep pace with productivity gains.
    Instead, a huge share of productivity growth, which expands the nation’s income, is going to Americans on the top of the income scale. In 2005, the latest year with available data, the top of 1 percent of Americans---whose average annual income was $ 1.1 million--- took in 21.8 percent of the nation’s income, their largest share since 1929.
    Administration officials, and other politicians and economists, often, believe that income inequality, reflects an education gap. But Mr. Levy and Mr. Temin show that in the case of men, the average bachelor’s degree is not enough to catch the rising tide of the global economy.
    They argue that the real reason that inequality is worsening is the lack of strong policies that broadly distribute economic gains. In the past, for example, a more progressive income tax and unions promote equality. Positive measures have been eroding and new ones have not yet emerged, making the income gap even greater.
    Mr. Levy and Mr. Temin conclude that only a new government policy can restore general prosperity. That’s a challenge to the nation’s leader and today’s graduates. America needs them to contribute to the development of the nation in global economy.
    【小题1】The passage is mainly about that _______.

    A．there is a big income gap between female and male college graduates in America.
    B．college graduates find it hard to find an ideal job after graduation in America.
    C．research shows that American government should take measures to ensure income equality for college graduates
    D．college degrees are losing value in America.
    【小题2】What is the main idea of paragraph 5?
    A．The whole nation has enjoyed a big income growth with the growth of productivity.
    B．Much of the total income in America has been gained by a few very rich people.
    C．A small part of people in America have income increase.
    D．Upper class Americans contribute most to productivity growth.
    【小题3】The underlined word “eroding” in paragraph 7 probably means _______.
    A．being gradually destroyed by wind or rain
    B．gradually reducing power
    C．gradually disappearing
    D．gradually not suitable
    【小题4】We can infer from the passage that _______.
    A．female college graduates have higher income than male ones.
    B．female college graduates have benefited from some governmental measures to ensure their income growth.
    C．income tax can grantee income equality.
    D．new measures and policies have been taken to promote income equality.
    【小题5】From the passage, some economists believe that the worsening income inequality is caused by ______.
    A．lower college degree of college graduates
    B．lack of proper governmental policies
    C．gender discrimination
    D．underdevelopment of economy and productivity.

    What if you could fly like a bird just by thinking happy thoughts? Or you could disappear to a faraway land, never grow old and fight pirates every day? For Peter Pan and his friends, the Lost Boys, these dreams come true.

    More than 100 years after this playful boy was “born”, Peter Pan and his friends are to continue their adventure in a sequel(续集)to J.M. Barrie’s original novel. “Peter Pan in Scarlet”(重返梦幻岛),written by British author Geraldine McCaughrean, was published earlier this month.

    The sequel brings all the original characters back. Peter Pan’s friends, the Lost Boys, are now grown up and live in the real world. What’s more, at the end of the first book, Peter Pan thinks he has killed his enemy, Captain Hook. But ,new readers discover he is not so dead at all.

    For those who are unfamiliar with the original story, Peter Pan lives in faraway Neverland with a group of orphans. But they are eager for a real mother and Peter Pan flies to London with a fairy(仙女), Tinkerbell, to find one. They visit a young girl, Wendy, who loves to read stories, and bring her and her two brothers back to Neverland to live with them. In Neverland, children never have to grow up, and there are no parents to tell them what to do.

    Many teenagers dream of a world where they don’t have to grow old and take responsibility. But, the author explains such a world is not the paradise(乐园)when it first appears: adventures can be scary and often dangerous, and, though we all sometimes dream of running away, we all need someone to love and look after us too.
